Silent Witness

UPDATE: December 17, 2012

UPDATE: Silent Witness is now offering a $10,000 reward for information in this case.

Five suspects. Phoenix Police Sgt. Darren Burch said that means five people who may have talked about their crime.

“This is referred to as a ‘take-down robbery,'” he said. “This is very violent blitz attack where you have more than one person come into the store and you order everyone down on the ground. This is the kind of thing you see on T.V. and we don’t have very many of these, thank God.”

But we had one on Tuesday, Nov. 27, 2012 at the Cash America Super Pawn at 59th Avenue and Camelback. It was 6:45 p.m.

“One suspect has a gun and he immediately controls the employees and customers while the other four are smashing the glass to the jewelry cases and quickly putting everything into one container. They’re out of there in less than a minute,” said Burch.
